To ALL WHOM IT MAY coNenRN; f

Be it known that I, AUGUSTUS IHARRINGTON, of Warsaw, in the county of Wyoming, and" State of New York, have invented certain new and useful improvements in Pipes for Wellsy and do'he'reby declare that 'the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference beinghad to the accompanying drawings, and the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.

In the annexed drawings, A represents a metallic tube having a series of circular openings made near the bottom. These openings, a, are'cut on four sides 0f the tube, and one above the other. b b represent metallic ribs which are perpendicularlr attached to the tube A, and extend a slight distance above the height ofI the row of openings a. At the bottom of the tube is a metal spear B, which spear is so constructed that the top portion is larger in diameter than the diameter of the tube A, so as Ato clear an opening in'the ground and prevent the binding of the perforated pipe. Directly under each of the perforutions a, is placed a screen or filter, x, to prevent dirt or sand from being drawn into the tube. This pipe -is intended for use inreservoir Wells, and is driven in the ground, revolving asit goes down.V The ribs b act as reaniers to clear the ruud or sand from the perforations, one ring being placed between each row ofopening's a. Whenever the sand or anything obstructs the passage of water, the tube is revolved and causes the enlargement ofthe capacity.

Having thus fullj,7 described my iventiomwhat I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

The tube A, having a series of four or more perforations a; said perforations being lined with wire screens, in'combination with the ribs b and spear B, when arranged in the manner substantially as :ind for the purposes specified. 'A

Injvit-ness that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand in -presence of witnesses.

AUGUSTUS HARRINGTON.
